'GOOD MONTH' Mix (NTS X Kit Records)

DJ Koze has been one of the most adventurous and consistently entertaining techno producers of the 2000s and 2010s. Fusing a good ear for warm melodies with an enthusiastic attitude toward experimentation as well as a cheeky, offbeat sense of humor, his productions are highly inventive crowd-pleasers. [Andy Kellman, Allmusic]

150 Session pulls together two hours of Koze's best tracks on this In Focus.

The beloved German producer talks about finding inner peace, overstimulation and his new album on Pampa Records.

Mental health is a topic that comes up frequently in the music industry, but it's still not discussed enough among electronic music's top performers. In this RA Exchange, Stefan Kozalla—better known as DJ Koze—opens up about his battle with anxiety, self-doubt and rising expectations that come with being a long-standing, high-profile name. He talks about overstimulation, music as rest and the compromises artists need to make to have relevance and staying power.

Kozalla, a beloved and eccentric German artist who has developed a cult following over the course of his career, has productions on esteemed labels like XL, Kompakt, Cocoon, Warp, Ninja Tune and BPitch, which garner praise as soon as they're released. "Every time DJ Koze comes out of the woodwork to drop a 12-inch—or even just a remix—we usually end up hearing it everywhere for months on end," wrote former RA editor Andrew Ryce.

Kozalla talks to RA contributor (and former editor) Matt Unicomb about his production process and early influences—an uncanny combination of Basic Channel and Public Enemy—as well as his forthcoming album, Music Can Hear Us, coming out on Pampa Records on April 4th.

Nathan Micay Live at Sneaky Pete's, Edinburgh (March, 2019)

Never thought I’d say this but very excited to announce Schvitz Edits has made it to 003!! The last year or so has been very good to me and so I’ve decided to make this label entirely a fundraising project. From here on out 100% of all profits will be donated. Each release will focus on a different queer NGO around the world. For 003 I’ve decided to focus on the Humsafar Trust, India’s oldest and largest queer advocacy group. We’ve been in touch for a while now and in their words: “every bit counts”...
This will be out on Friday and as always limited to 300 copies.
